New post for year 2010-graduating

It has been almost half year since my last update. I have been quite busy stepping into my final semester of my final year doing clerkship in hospital. Since coming back from China,I was a bit lag behind with my studies as I was absent for almost 2 weeks classes. We had a super pack schedule from 8am to 10pm at night almost everyday before Chinese New Year to finish off all the syllabus within that month. Right after Chinese New Year, I started my clerkship In Penang General Hospital while half of my coursemates went Kelantan for their clerkship.

My friend has always asked me what is clerkship about as they often confused it with internship. Clerkship is actually some practical training in hospital to expose ourselves to get hands on experience on what we have learned in 4 years time. We need to clerk some cases every week for case report , the main difference between clerkship and internship is during clerkship, we are in student position doing observation and clerking cases without authority to make any decision or treat patient. Just like what we did in last semester,we have 6 weeks clerkship which we were rotated to different department each week. What was difference from last semester was this semester would be hospital practice clerkship which we are placed in 6 different ward eg psychiatric ward, surgical ward, obstetric & gynecological ward etc.

Although it was really tiring to go to hospital early morning everyday till 5pm, but I did enjoy a lot for the 6 weeks clerkship. I got the chance to witness myself the spontaneous delivery process and caeserian process and realized how great a mother to bear the pain and with such courage to give birth to a baby.

Another memorable ward would be the psychiatric ward. You could hear many funny jokes and interesting conversation from them. Some of them are quite normal actually (I mean look normal ).. Everyone there has their sad story behind, some even abandoned by their families...

Now it's already the end of my semester and I'm finally free of exam ! Flashing back my 4 years memories in university, I really miss all those wonderful moments with my friends. Maybe some of them I don't really have chance to talk much and know further with , but I do thanks them for being my friends in part of my life. If you ask me what is the greatest things I learned in my university life, I would tell you it's 'How to manage the relationship with people and EQ' . I have met different types of people in university and find out the toughest subject we need to learn in lifelong time is the relationship with people, how to deal and manage with different types of people from all walks of life. I grow and develop a lot during my 4 years life, making myself well-prepared to the big society world outside. And for sure another things I treasured a lot is the friendship I gained during my university life, I would cherish the moments I spend with my friends even though it would be difficult for us to gather around in the future.
Lastly, just hope to wish all my friends all the best for their future undertakings and take care always =)
